It's such a shame that people like Vikescomics sell on eBay.

I loved his latest feedback, though....

"COMICS EN BUEN ESTADO, MALA COMUNICACION Y TARDA MUCHISIMO EN EL ENVIO."

My rusty spanish translates that as "the comics are in good condition (state), bad communication and very late to send."

I was SOOOO tempted to bid three-fiddy!

This guy knows this isn't made out of real gold, right?

Because that's the only explanation for that opening bid I'd believe.

I bought all mine for 75c-$2.00.

He even manages to slip the word "sexy" in the title for a Star Wars magazine auction.....

Another one of those "I'm not an "expert" grader (whatever THAT means), so books are scanned. You be the judge (except that the pictures are so small as to render them totally irrelevant in determing anything but the most EGREGIOUS flaws the books might have, but I don't mention that, cause that might cost me money.)

Time for these sellers to GO.

Here's a winner.

http://cgi.ebay.com/VALIANT-HARBINGER-0 ... 0203342648

He's got a whole batch of signed books, all with the following description:

THESE ARE FROM A PRIVATE COLLECTION. THEY ARE ALL BAGGED AND BOARDED. THEY HAVE BEEN KEPT IN SMOKE FREE, CLIMATE CONTROLLED STORAGE. I AM SELLING THESE FOR THE OWNER. I AM NOT AN EXPERT BY *ANY* MEANS AND HAVE LIMITED KNOWLEDGE - SO PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ASK ANY QUESTIONS, I WILL DO MY BEST TO ANSWER THEM. THESE ARE **MINT FROM THE PUBLISHER*** >>GUARANTEDD<< AND SIGNED 1ST EDITIONS WITH COA - UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED.

The owner has told me to list all of the unsold comics at $9.99 and let them go where they will - his comics - he’s the boss . At this price - as is where is no refunds GOOD LUCK - and HAVE FUN!
I NO LONGER SHIP TO CANADA - GO AHEAD - ASK ME WHY

----------

Feedback of 96.7% and a location of "On the Road - AS FOUND, United States".

What do you want to bet someone could reasonably argue about his assertion of mint and he would call them unreasonable?

Here's his list of books that will never sell at $9.99.

In her defense (a little). I spoke with this woman on the phone when she first started listing comic books. I talked to her for about 30 minutes. She is an older lady, 50's+ I would say by her voice. She lives in Nevada, forgot the name of the town. Shes selling a friends comic book collection. She has absolutely no clue about anything on comics. Shes just selling them for a rich old man. She dug through a box while on the phone reading off what she had. Alot of older stuff, and alot from the 90's. Lots of stuff with coa's from various places with sigs. She came across a turok 1, and was like "wow", because of the cover.

Most her negs were from 2 people. One who is no longer a registered user. I think he tried to scam her because she claims he paid with a bad check, then tried to get a refund, then closed his ebay account. She does have 50 positives from this month.

I have 2 x-men comics on the way from her, oldies. Will let ya know how they turn out.
